discord-rs is a Rust client library for the Discord chat client's API.
The Discord API can be divided into three main components: the RESTful API to which calls can be made to take actions, a websocket-based permanent connection over which state updates are received, and the voice calling system.
Log in to Discord with Discord::new. The resulting value can be used to
make REST API calls to post messages and manipulate Discord state. Calling
connect() will open a websocket connection, through which events can be
received. These two channels are enough to write a simple chatbot which can
read and respond to messages.
For more in-depth tracking of Discord state, a State can be seeded with
the ReadyEvent obtained when opening a Connection and kept updated with
the events received over it.
To use the voice call system, initialize a VoiceConnection with the user id
received in the ReadyEvent, call voice_connect on the Connection, and
pass events to VoiceConnection::update. Once the connection has been
established, the play and stop methods can be used to control playback.
